In Kate Winslet's new film, she plays Lee Miller, the famed model-turned-photographer who acted as Vogue's war correspondent in the 1940s.
Speaking to Today's Emma Barnett about making the film, Kate said that the photographer "was born with her eyes wide open".
"She can really step into the same world as that person to really immerse herself. Lee was Lee and she saw things and did things her own way."
Kate also produced the film and worked closely with Miller's only son, Antony Penrose.
